What Does FLSA Cover?
The Fair Labor Standards Act was put in place to ensure that our workforce is paid a fair living wage. As times have changed, the law has also been updated to address different ways workers are compensated and the benefits some employees receive for their work.
The FLSA covers:
- Minimum wage
- Youth minimum wage
- Overtime
- Tipped employees
- Bookkeeping practices
- Exemptions
In some circumstances, employees are exempt from guarantees provided the FLSA regarding overtime pay and even minimum wage. However, it's important to realize that the FLSA is a federal law—the California Labor Code also comes into play for employers and compliance with those laws is also essential. This can be difficult to navigate as many of the provisions overlaps and seemingly contradict one another. Our firm can help you decode these laws and ensure that your company puts into practice policies that will keep it in compliance for years to come.
We're ready to speak with your team and assess your company's practices. It all starts with a conversation—request a consultation with our firm today.
